Site Portfolio Site Name: The Pastures, Fleetwood Road, Wesham Grid Reference: E. 341871 : N.433365 Ward: Medlar-with-Wesham Current Policy Allocation in Existing Local Plan: Countryside Area (SP2) Gross Site Area: (Ha) 14.86 Ha Developable Area: (Ha) 8.92 Ha Local Plan Revised Preferred Option Site HSS8 Ref: Local Plan Preferred Option 2013 Site Site Ref. H13 Reference and relevant policies: Policy SL4 – Kirkham and Wesham Strategic Location for Development SHLAA Ref: WS10 and WS09 Planning Application Ref: 12/0589, 13/0754 and 14/0779 Position at December 2015: Outline planning permission granted (12/0589) for up to 100 homes on part of the site. Development has commenced on the site. Outline application (13/0754) for demolition of existing dwellings and redevelopment of the site for up to 264 dwellings together with associated development, open space, landscaping and development relating to biodiversity enhancement / protection. (Access applied for with other matters reserved), land east of Fleetwood Road and north of Mowbreck Lane. Currently at appeal. Resubmission (14/0779) of application 13/0754 for outline planning permission for erection of up to 264 dwellings together with associated development, open space, landscaping and development relating to biodiversity enhancement / protection. (Access applied for and all other matters reserved), granted planning permission on 12 March 2015. Proposed Allocation: Residential Justification The site is located to the north of the existing settlement boundary of Kirkham / Wesham, and is accessed to the east of the A585 (Kirkham Bypass). The site is greenfield and it is located on land identified as ‘countryside’ in the existing Fylde Local Plan (Policy SP2) and comprises agricultural land. The site adjoins a Biological Heritage Site. There is also a field pond on the site and this should be protected, or replaced if lost. Page 1 of 4 08/12/2015 Kirkham is a Key Service Centre which includes a town centre with access to a range of services and facilities to meet main and daily shopping needs. Kirkham is an accessible location within the borough with access to good public transport including access to regular rail services (Kirkham and Wesham Railway Station) and close proximity to the motorway and strategic road network. This site is very accessible in terms of the social infrastructure of Kirkham and Wesham; and sustainable relative to the established settlement of Kirkham. The site could form an urban extension to Wesham. Development has commenced on the site with first completions expected 2015/16; the whole site could be completed by 2025. The site provides a comprehensive residential development, making a significant contribution to the housing supply of the Borough. Infrastructure The development of the site is dependent on the provision of relevant infrastructure to ensure the delivery of a sustainable development. Significant investment would be required in fresh water, wastewater and gas supply infrastructure to the site. The requisite infrastructure will be set out in the Infrastructure Delivery Schedule which is an integral part of the Infrastructure Delivery Plan. Landscape Appraisal (Sensitivity to Development: Low, Moderate, High) Only local viewpoints adjacent to the site will incur significant impacts, because of the view’s proximity to the site. (Source- Land at Wesham for Metacre Limited-Landscape Report for Planning Application -Cooper Partnership (2011) Viability Developer Interest: Yes. Site Viability: Viable – Planning permission granted / Development commenced. Any Additional Information Surface water run-off is an issue. Measures need to be put in place to ensure greenfield run-off rates are achieved. A minority of the site is situated within a Mineral Safeguarding Area in the Lancashire Minerals and Waste Local Plan, covering sand and gravel reserves. Please see the separate Sustainability Appraisal and the Habitats Regulations Assessment.

M3 – Mixed Use development Reference and relevant policies: Policy SL4 – Kirkham and Wesham Strategic Location for Development SHLAA Ref: KI27 and KI38 Planning Application Ref: Outline 12/0635, 12/0419 and 15/0308 Position at December 2015: Outline application (12/0419) for up to 140 dwellings with 30% of these to be affordable and associated infrastructure from a new access to Blackpool Road (access applied for with all other matters reserved), allowed at appeal on 28th March 2013. Application (15/0308) for approval of reserved matters pursuant to outline planning permission 12/0635 for the layout, scale, appearance and landscaping of a development for 180 dwellings and associated infrastructure was granted on 5th August 2015. Development has commenced on site. Proposed Allocation: Residential development Justification The site, which is also locally known as the ‘Kirkham Triangle’ is located to the west of the existing settlement boundary of Kirkham, bordered by the A583, A585 (Kirkham Bypass) and the railway line. The site is greenfield and it is located on land identified as ‘countryside’ in the existing Fylde Local Plan (Policy SP2). The site comprises agricultural land, with brooks and ponds, and also includes school playing fields (FBLP Policy TREC 14) for Kirkham Grammar School. There is a Biological Heritage Site located within the site (FBLP Policy EP17) and there are areas of trees that are protected by Tree Preservation Orders and several field ponds which should be protected, or replaced if lost. A small proportion of the site falls within Flood Zones 2 and 3. Wrongway Brook flows through the site and this is a Main River designated on the Environment Agency’s Main River maps. The Flood Zones follow Page 1 of 5 08/12/2015 the route of the Main River. Kirkham is a Key Service Centre which includes a town centre with access to a range of services and facilities to meet main and daily shopping needs. Kirkham is an accessible location within the borough with access to good public transport including access to regular rail services (Kirkham and Wesham Railway Station) and close proximity to the motorway and strategic road network. This site is sustainable relative to the established settlement of Kirkham. However, the A585 bypass potentially provides a hard barrier for pedestrian and cycle access to and from Kirkham. There is strong developer interest in this site and the site could form an urban extension to Kirkham. Two planning applications have been granted permission for residential development on a significant part of the site. Half of the site is situated within a Mineral Safeguarding Area in the Lancashire Minerals and Waste Local Plan. LCC recommends that site surveys are undertaken for the site before development takes place, in order to assess the extent and quality of the reserves and whether there is a case for prior extraction of sand and gravel. Given the nature of the surrounding area of Kirkham, it is considered that a residential allocation would be the most appropriate for the site. The site has the potential to provide a comprehensive residential development. The site would make a significant contribution to the housing supply of the Borough. Infrastructure The development of the site is dependent on the provision of relevant infrastructure to ensure the delivery of a sustainable development.

    Fylde Local Plan to 2032 Adopted 22 October 2018 Date: October 2018 Review Date: October 2023 Our Ref: FLP2032 Authorised by: Julie Glaister, Planning Policy Manager Fylde Local Plan to 2032 Preface Fylde consists of the classic seaside resort towns of Lytham and St Annes, the historic market town of Kirkham and the urban centres of Wesham, Warton and Freckleton; together with large areas of countryside and picturesque rural settlements. The Local Plan identifies the settlement hierarchy for Fylde at the end of the plan period in 2032. It is a destination in its own right for leisure, culture and tourism. Fylde is also an important part of the Lancashire economy – containing regionally significant business sectors including BAE Systems at Warton, (part of the internationally and nationally important Lancashire Advanced Engineering and Manufacturing Enterprise Zone), Blackpool Airport and its associated Enterprise Zone and the Westinghouse Springfields (Salwick) nuclear processing plant. It is vital that we manage, guide and encourage development within Fylde to meet the identified needs and aspirations of our local communities. The Local Plan identifies four Strategic Locations for Development which will be the focus for the level of housing development and economic growth required in Fylde up to the end of the plan period. The four Strategic Locations are: Lytham and St Annes; Fylde – Blackpool Periphery; Warton; and Kirkham and Wesham. To accommodate the level of development proposed, the Local Plan includes a masterplan policy for all of the Strategic Locations to ensure that new development on strategic sites is planned and delivered in an effective manner.
